    Massive gigachad move to write such a story. The Last of Us part II isn't perfect, but it sure is better than anything its haters deserve.

    A sadness of game industry. Game is not movie——bad gameplay，bad design，boring experience.

    The story is abysmal I'm sorry. All the nuance of part 1 is gone. The gameplay is fantastic, the engine runs amazing, but when your selling point is the story I'm sorry I'mma be real with you Neil, I don't think you're as smart as you think you are. I also am disgusted by hoe Naughty Dog abuses their employees.

    Don't trust the negative review bombing. This is by far the best narrative and story telling i have seen so far with insane level of details
    Playtime is ~30 hours and every scene you see or play clearly shows that a **** ton of work has gone into this game.
    The game has the best graphics you can get on a ps4 pro (which i played it on first) and even puts some ps5 exclusives to shame.    Don't trust the negative review bombing. This is by far the best narrative and story telling i have seen so far with insane level of details

    The game has the best graphics you can get on a ps4 pro (which i played it on first) and even puts some ps5 exclusives to shame. The improvements on the ps5 system are neglectable but nice to have (60fps or 4k and faster loading).

    I encountered no bugs, glitches or crashes in 2 playthroughs.

    Playing through the first the last of us is mandatory to get the most out of this story.
    The story needs you to be open minded and having empathy. If you cant deal with a story without plotarmor, this is not for you. Some people have really strong opinions about this one but i don't want to spoil you. Lets compare it to Game of Thrones: Some ppl are huge Oberyn Martell fans and cant deal with the fact that he got his head crushed by the mountain. A huge part of the negative reviews are because of that. These reviews are unjustified but i get that it sucks to loose a character in a show or game that you love.

    The gameplay is not complex at all and most of it is exploring or fighting. The animations here again are extraordinary. Over all you should not buy this game for its gameplay alone. If you seek for a skill challenge there are other games like dark souls, hollow night or whatever. Overall this is a point i can see why someone would reduce their final verdict on this game by some points. For me the gameplay fits its purpose well and exploring the last of us part 2 is fun and does not distract you from the story.

    The game is brutal in every way. The story is dark. The violence in this game is sometimes over the top but helps to deliver the dark times ppl go through in this game. If you cant stand aggression and violence in games/movies i dont recomment this game to you.

    Homophobic ppl seem to review bomb this game as well. Hard to explain without spoiling but this game does not force political statements. It just represents people of all kind and some homophobic idiots get triggered because of it. Its not even that big of a deal when you play through it.

    Overall if you seek for a story driven game in a violent postapocalyptic world the last of us part 1 and 2 is the best you can get.    … Expand

    Unfassbar gute Story, so super inszeniert und so dramatisch das es einen von den Socken haut. Über die Geschichte selbst kann man streiten aber nicht über Präsentation und Qualität.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. People who don’t love this game are either homophobic/transphobic, or just don’t understand the narrative.
    Abby and Ellie are not “heros” or “villains”. They’re just people making choices, some good, some bad. They both grow and they both decide to end the cycle of violence, but more than that, they both find meaning and understanding in life through their journeys.    … Expand

    WOW !!!
    It is a fantastic game, it has transmitted a thousand emotions. The plot is much more complex than the first chapter which makes it a game not suitable for everyone. Graphically it is spectacular, every single ravine has blown me away. The music made me goosebumps.
    In short, overall wonderful, a game genre that unfortunately is not seen every year. Naughty dog ​​has dropped a    WOW !!!

    It was everything I expected for this second installment in terms of gameplay, instead the story confuses me a little about what they want to teach, the ending left a bitter taste in my mouth despite that I enjoyed the game a lot

    The gameplay, graphics, sound, and the first half of the story were awesome. thought the story declined in quality as it went on but I think it picked up again from the hospital basement section of Abby's story.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Absolutely disgusting how the beloved characters, Joel and Ellie, are treated after their amazing adventure from part 1 in 2013. This is what the fans waited for?! Really!??
    The beginning of the game plays out like the first episode of season 7 of the Walking Dead, where Joel is beaten to death with a golf club by a newly introduced villain named Abby. To make things worse, the game then forces you to play as Abby, a character you will hate. Ellie vows revenge against Abby, but she never gets it. The end of the game is one of the most pointless depressing endings I've ever had the displeasure of viewing.
    It's clear that Naughty Dog had an agenda to push with this game. Specifically an "Anti-White male" agenda. This is something I will absolutely not support and I will no longer purchase any games from Naughty Dog. The director, Neil Druckman, will never live this game down and it will always come back to haunt him.    … Expand

    Overall score is 0 due to the false advertising. This has been advertised as a story about Joel and Ellie. That's a bait-and-switch, you have been warned.

    Estupendos graficos y una historia predecible y realista. Tal vez no es el cierre que todos esperabamos pero nadie podria decir que no es algo perfectamente verosímil en un mundo hostil como el que se nos presenta.

    IGNORE every single idiot saying "paid critics" or "sjw" or giving this game a 0/10.

    Just complete nonsense from salty, salty chuds. The only power they have is review bombing a game that will stay acclaimed and successful no matter how they cry.

    The game is a masterpiece, amazing gameplay, beautiful visuals, great characters, a perfect continuation of the story of part 1.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. He estado esperando este juego por mucho tiempo, esperando una aventura junto Joel y Elie, y me escupieron en la cara una historia forzada, sin ningún personaje encariñable o recordable, pusieron la historia de Abby por encima de la de Elie, forzandonos a enseñarnos con una personaje que despreciamos, para que al final no la mate por un flashback, en fin, un asco de historia. En torno a los gráficos y apartado técnico una obra maestra.… Expand

    Gorgeous game. Parts of the game were fun. Exploring downtown and the empty buildings was great and reminded me of the first game. The story was so bad. Not just the Joel aspect but all the characters were just unlikeable or completely forgettable. Sorry itself was not convincing. Seemed lazy. The overwhelming theme was try too hard. Everything seemed forced and inauthentic.this game wasGorgeous game. Parts of the game were fun. Exploring downtown and the empty buildings was great and reminded me of the first game.

    The Last of Us Part II is the high point of the PlayStation 4. The plot is controversial, but the game is the incredibly addictive adventure of Ellie, from which it is impossible to pull away from the opening and to the very end.

    Not everyone is going to enjoy the motives of The Last of Us Part II. But if you try and manage to accept the subliminal and not so subtle messages as a fact that the world has gone awry and that people have the need to have somewhere or someone to belong to as their own way out, then... You will witness the boundaries of gaming expand. You will witness a true masterpiece.

    If you loved the original for its great characters and well-paced story – stay away from this game. However, if you’re aching to sink into the depths of depression, or just want to cut some throats and burn some zombies – Part II will deliver. [Issue#247, p.72]
